Not sure. Max wants a car that he can fight with for the WDC.

Who doesn’t. So did Alonso. Doesn’t always work out. I guess we’ll find out…

Massive difference is that Max is the best driver on the grid...

This weekend Austria, next weekend Great Britain (5 July), 1 week off and then Belgium (19 July) followed by Hungary (26 July). I prefer these tracks to the new ones.

Spoiled!

apparently Max was offered a controlling stake in Racing Bulls as a way to keep him at Red Bull.

I dont trust the source, so its just rumour to me. think it was even posted here.

if Max leaves Red Bull he leaves F1. no question in my mind about that. he will move to other racing series. maybe get himself the tripple crown. he is capable of it.

This is a serious blip on the horizon. Downhill from here.

Max has said that he won't do IndyCar. His most likely next series would be WEC.

It is almost a given that he will go to WEC/GT3 racing. He runs his own GT3 team and has been enteing events.

Doing Indy is a gamble. Stars have to align for a successful attempt at it and there is as much luck involved in winning it as there is skill and having a competitive car.

From Sky F1 :
Let's get into the upgrades then because we have a lot of them and Red Bull's is probably most significant as the performance of their new parts may dictate Max Verstappen's future...

Visibly the car looks more aggressive with a re-designed engine cover, sidepods, floor and rear corner as part of a complete overhaul of the RB22's aerodynamics.

There is also a new rear wing and exhaust tailpipe, with Red Bull also hoping their upgrades bring down the car's weight to the minimum limit, having been overweight for the opening seven rounds.

So Williams and Asron Martin at the back and lapped again?
